It can be hard to sort though the ever-shifting sea of information out there when it comes to supplements. We only offer products that we've researched thoroughly, and that we believe complement a food-based, nutrient-dense approach to health. We don't believe in magic bullets, but we do believe in carefully crafted tonics and carefully sourced traditional fats and high quality probiotics.

Dr. Weston A. Price discovered High Vitamin Butter Oil in the 1930s, and believed there was an extremely synergistic effect between High Vitamin Butter Oil and traditional cod liver oil. He treated many patients with this combination.

Many of the great historical cultures had one sacred food which they relied on to ensure strong mind, body, and spirit: Fermented fish/fish liver oil. The Mighty Roman Soldier was given a daily ration of fermented fish oil. The Stoic Scandinavian Viking had a drum of fermenting cod livers outside the door of his home. Grandma always had a bottle of cod liver oil in the back cupboard. Nutrient assays, including vitamins A and D, for these fermented oils vary widely depending on methodology, lab and batch. Current science struggles to answer the questions we have on our sacred fermented foods. There are many naturally occurring metabolites and co-factors that make the issue of measuring natural nutrients difficult in the fermented oils. We do know that historical cultures liberally consumed these sacred foods to great benefit without today’s standardization of knowledge. Allergy Statement: This product is made from wild caught fish and may contain other seafood allergens such as shellfish.

Blue Ice Fermented Cod Liver Oil in capsule form. We've found this can be easier to take than the liquid form. Cod Liver Oil is know to have high levels of the omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, and very high levels of vitamin A and vitamin D. According to Blue Ice: "Fish oils have historically been fermented for extraction; back in the Roman empire days, Viking era and all the way up to the Mid 1850’s. Rendering was introduced during the mid 1850’s as a more efficient fish liver processing method. The livers yielded a much higher total oil volume and the process could be accomplished in several hours rather than several months. What they did not understand is the effects that heat had on the nutrients (their science was not ready to address this question) . As with all industrial models, the focus was on profitability, speed or turns and, marketability (taste)."

Burdock root is perhaps the primary food on the planet for detoxification. Almost every herbal-medicine tradition includes it in detoxification regimens.

Modern research indicates that burdock root contains components that stimulate liver enzymes that participate in detoxification, properties that expel toxic products from the blood through the urine. It’s a good source of potassium, which helps control heart rate and blood pressure, and it contains valuable minerals, such as iron, manganese, magnesium and small amounts of zinc, calcium, selenium, and phosphorus.

Dr Cowan's Garden Root Powder is made from locally sourced organic burdock roots, which are steamed and dehydrated at low heat. Immediately packed in Miron jars, their Burdock Root Powder retains the smell and taste of earthy, fresh burdock roots.

Use this organic Burdock Root Powder in soups, stews, sprinkled on eggs, pasta, and rice, or in casseroles. Our favorite way to use it is in added to bone broth simmered with chopped greens, eggs and whatever other powders and/or fresh vegetables we have on hand.

Lowering the oxalate intake in the diet is a way to prevent stone formation, reduce systemic inflammation and, in general, achieve better health. The dilemma, however, is that a low-oxalate diet can lead to the avoidance of otherwise very beneficial foods, such as greens.

Organic lacinato kale, collard greens, and mustard leaves will give you the health benefits from the regular consumption of green vegetables while reducing your oxalate exposure.

Enjoy as you would our other green powders. Our favorite way to use our Low-Oxalate Greens Powder is folded into scrambled eggs or sprinkled liberally over soft-cooked eggs.

Inside this jar are approximately 50 servings! One teaspoon equals an average-size serving of the fresh vegetable.

Oxalate analysis (according to testing done at the University of Wyoming):

Beets, called red carrots in Europe, are one of the undisputed stars of the vegetable world. Research has identified three main medical uses for the common beet. The first is as a liver/gallbladder tonic because of its abundance of betaine, a phytochemical that thins the bile, thereby allowing for better bile flow. Beets have also been traditionally used to treat anemia, especially in children, because of their iron content. And, finally, recent studies have shown that beet powder is as effective a blood-pressure medicine as conventional treatments, most likely because of the presence of nitric-oxide precursors found in the beetroot.

We use three varieties of beets (Detroit Red, Chiogga and Golden) to make our Three-Beet Powder. Because of its intense flavor and abundant nutrients, it can be used in any dish, from salads to desserts (especially with its traditional complement, chocolate).

Our favorite way to use Dr. Cowan’s Garden Three-Beet Powder is a teaspoon added to yogurt and a splash of maple syrup.

The key to vegetable consumption is diversity: a wide variety of roots, leaves and fruits and as many colors as possible. Our Threefold Blend Powder makes accomplishing this as easy as adding a tablespoon of the nutritious powder to your morning soup, eggs or smoothie, thereby ensuring that you have already consumed a diverse vegetable diet for the day.

This version of our Threefold Blend Powder contains carrots and leeks (roots); Swiss chard and kale (leaves); and peppers. This combination ensures beta-carotene for overall immunity, eye and skin health; antioxidants for cancer prevention and heart health; and dietary fiber for maintaining a healthy weight and reducing risk of diabetes and heart disease.

We like to use our Threefold Blend Powder folded into granola with yogurt (try it!), added to spaghetti sauce, salad dressings and our bone-broth soup in the morning.

Miss Bee Haven's honeybees are situated in what must be prime real estate for their kind: the rolling fields and orchards in and around Frog Hollow Farm in Brentwood, whose fruits, preserves and baked goods call out to us from Farmers Market Stands around the Bay Area.

This raw Bee pollen is rich in vitamins, minerals, proteins, lipids and fatty acids, enzymes, carotenoids and bioflavonoids. Bee Pollen is said to be a powerful antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral reduce inflammation, stimulate the immune system and lower cholesterol levels naturally.

This trio makes a great host gift for Holiday parties! Alice Rosenthal, beekeeper and rescuer, likes to think of honey as in Forest Gump's famous line, "Local honey is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you might get". The beauty and surprise behind local wildflower honey is - you just don't know what you're gonna get. But one thing for sure - they are all going to taste great and different from each other. Alice of Golden Gate Neighborhood Honey, maintains slightly over 100 hives in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. The majority of maintained hives are from West Richmond, Upper Fruitvale, and North Oakland/South Berkeley. Most are wild honey that was harvested while rescuing and relocating honey bees in naturally occurring hives. The honey is processed differently when it is harvested from a wild environment. There are no frames to support the comb it must then be crushed (with hands) to liberate the honey. While harvesting the honey, small amounts of pollen and wax enter into the honey. Her efforts are helping our local bee populations happy and healthy.

Let's support her in keeping our local trees pollinated! These Jars are randomly picked form her many Wild harvests and make a great sampler of the huge varieties in flavor color and texture. The trios are random selections of three varieties: Hercules, Richmond Marina, El Sobrante, El Cerrito, Albany, Berkeley, Rockridge, Montclair, Fruitvale, Hayward, Claremont.

This is a therapeutic grade probiotic recommended for people on the GAPS (Gut and Psychology Syndrome) Diet.

According to their website: Bio-Kult is a unique multispecies, multistrain probiotic with 14 strains of beneficial bacteria. This means that Bio-Kult can deliver high concentrations of beneficial bacteria to the colonisation sites in the gut – and therefore be able to help a more diverse range of digestive disorders.

The beneficial bacteria in Bio-Kult are micro-encapsulated during the freeze drying process, which gives two main benefits:

1. They are protected from the harsh acid environment of the stomach and are therefore able to colonise the full length of the gastrointestinal tract.

2. The process allows Bio-Kult to be stored at room temperature without the need for refrigeration. Bio-Kult can be used on a continuous basis or for a short period of time, e.g. when taking antibiotics

Swedish Bitters can play a vital role in our modern lifestyle. In cultures that were closely connected to nature, the bitter taste was very prevalent in the daily diet. It has almost disappeared from the average "civilized" diet leaving people open to a host of imbalances. It is the bitter element which activates, tones and strengthens the liver, gall bladder and all digestive organs making it possible for our metabolism to reestablish its equilibrium.
Experience has shown that the Swedish Bitters elixir has a remarkably wide range of applications. Digestive complaints, general detoxifying, insomnia, allergies, cold and flu symptoms are some of the most common uses.
Conditions where the internal use of Swedish Bitters is contraindicated: diarrhea, cases of intestinal obstruction, during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and constitutional homeopathic remedies.
Ingredients: Angelica root, rhubarb, aloe, manna ash, senna leaf, zedoary root, theriac venezian camphor, carline thistle, myrrh and saffron in 40% grain alcohol.

A daily tonic for busy humans. Stabilizing syrup is a honey-based tonic made with adaptogenic herbs. An adaptogen is a plant that increases the body’s resistance to damaging long-term and environmental stress. When the body goes through a stress response blood sugar levels peak, help us through the stressful moment, and then taper off. Adaptogens help to ‘smooth out’ these changes in blood sugar, which in turn helps us feel less frantic and more flexible. This syrup is made with nourishing adaptogens also known for their immune support, warming spices, and nutritive berries. This tastes good, and makes you feel like a rockstar. Ingredients: Eleuthero (Eleutherococcus senticosus), schizandra berry (Schizandra chinensis) reishi, (Ganaderma lucidum), ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), licorice (Glycyrrhoriza glabra), milky oat tops (Avena sativa), nettles (Urtica dioica), rosehips (Rosa spp.), clove, star anise, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, goji berries, honey, filtered well water, maple syrup, a touch o’ brandy, and a wellness wish. Dosage: 1 Tablespoon daily (or much more, depending on your stress levels) Not recommended for pregnancy. Keep Refrigerated.

If you've been using the Strong Child syrup, don't worry, this is the same formula with one more herb (ginger!) and a bit more reishi. Wellness Syrup is a slightly updated formula that is potent enough for adults and safe for children. (Frieda, the syrup maker, thought about calling it "instead-of-insurance syrup", but it wouldn't fit on the label. ) This medicine is formulated for deep immune support and nutrient absorption. It's meant to be taken during seasonal shifts, at the onset of illness, and for people with compromised immune systems (sleep-deprived, very stressed, elderly, coming off antibiotics). It's alcohol free (honey-based), safe for children, and uber local with Sonoma County honey, elderberry and jujube. It also makes an excellent 'sick drink' combined with apple cider vinegar, hot water, and crushed garlic.

All herbs are certified organic or mindfully harvested. Dosage: 2-4 years: ½-1 teaspoons daily, 4-6 years: 1-2 teaspoons daily, 6-12 years: 1 tablespoon daily. Remember, this is a safe, gentle formula, and the dosage is simply a suggestion. Feel free to experiment with how you offer this medicine as part of a meal. Keep Refrigerated.
